Come visit us at Steelhead Run offering panoramic views of the sunsets on Lake Erie. You will find this two-bedroom cottage to be quite comfortable offering all the utility of a smaller home. We have another cottage next door, see VRBO #427161. When you arrive, you will find yourself nestled between Lake Erie and Chautauqua Creek on 7 forested acres. Both features can be accessed in less than a 200-foot walk from the cottage. On the beach you can spend time hunting for beach glass and driftwood, or take the half-mile walk along the beach to Barcelona Harbor area to enjoy a bite to eat, a cocktail, or even purchase a smoked fish at the fish market. Barcelona Harbor also offers a marina and a public launching facility to access Lake Erie. Do you want to go fishing? Take a charter out of the harbor or try and hit the world-renowned Steelhead fishery found in Chautauqua Creek. Don’t worry if Lake Erie is a little too rough on that day for boating. Make a trip to any one of the four inland lakes a short drive from the cottage. Chautauqua Lake is the largest and closest (5mi.) inland lake to the cottage. Chautauqua Lake offers many attractions available by boat that includes, The Chautauqua Institution, Midway Amusement Park, Long Point State Park, shopping, and numerous restaurant/bar establishments. There is truly something for everyone here. Consider a wine tour if you’re looking to venture away from the lake for a bit. Lake Erie Wine Country, located in the largest grape-growing region east of the Rockies, extends roughly 45 miles from Silver Creek, New York to North East, Pennsylvania. At the end of 2011, it has become home to over 26 commercial and estate wineries. Other attractions within arm's reach include Niagara Falls, restaurants, ski resorts, snowmobile trails, nature trails, golf courses, inland lakes, shopping, and a casino, most in less than a 30-mile radius. Additionally, one can find cultural stimulation at Chautauqua Institution. Here you can enjoy their symphony, concerts, speaking venues and theater performances.
As a courtesy to the neighboring cottage, please respect the maximum number of guests in our cottages. We do understand that our guests want to share the experience of Steelhead Run with friends and family. Visitors are certainly welcome, but please limit their numbers to ensure that there is minimal disturbance to the neighbors.
If you are anticipating large group size, please consider reserving both cottages. We have successfully accommodated events such as small family gatherings, church retreats, and even professional photo shoots. Wedding venues are not allowed.
We are located ½ mile from the New York State Thruway (I-90), Exit 60. From here, you will find that it’s a quick ride to and from the Buffalo or Erie International Airports.

The property and hosts were amazing. The cabin was immaculate. We can’t say enough for the condition and the attention to detail. They provided everything you would need and then some. We absolutely loved our stay and hope to be back soon.
Really awesome cabin!! Lakefront with an awesome view. We had 4 people with my group and there was plenty of room and plenty of parking. Definitely will book this property again!!
Both cottages were impeccably clean and stocked with everything we needed! It is a dream spot and a perfect set up to bring the whole family by renting both properties! It's our favorite vacation of the year, we look forward to our stay every fall!
Always an amazing stay when you book at Steel Head Run! Nice local town, the Cabins are immaculate, and the Lake with the sunset is breathtaking. I would highly recommend for a bucket list trip, Niagara Falls is not far from there. Jesse from central PA
Another incredible stay at Sunset cabin. David is a wonderful host & we are so lucky he shares his breathtaking property with us. Westfield is such a lovely lil town. We hope to come back again in the future.
Beautiful setting. Comfortable clean space. Well stocked kitchen. Fire pit, lakefront, quiet & relaxing. Host is always quick to respond. Great amenities. Perfect.
Just as pictured and described! Host helpful. Had a wonderful time despite having to cut trip short due to a medical event. Host extremely accommodating! Perfect location and family friendly. 2 cottages on property with plenty of room for all. Thanks Dave for everything!
Great spot on the north east end of Steelhead alley
Cabin is wonderful ,very clean and well stocked. We have stayed here before. It was our 4 th stay in as many years. Nothing but good things to say about the hosts, accommodations and location.
Spent 4 wonderful days/nights at this beautiful cabin on Lake Erie. The views of the Lake were breathtaking and the sunsets were amazing! Such a relaxing weekend. The Westfield area and restaurants were fantastic. Would do this trip again in a minute.
Beautiful, peaceful with amazing Lake Erie views. Super clean, cozy, and well-stocked. Loved the quiet mornings on the porch and great sunsets. Great location and thoughtful hosts. It’s not our first time here and we’ll definitely be back!
Another great stay here on the lake. Property is great and so easy to get to!

About the host
Hosted by David Spann
This property has been in our family since the late 60’s. My wife and I built a home on here in 1998. This is where we continue to raise our children, Anthony and Morgan.
Why they chose this property
We chose to build here to provide visitors with actual beachfront access. Much of the Lake Erie shoreline is elevated high on bluffs making it quite inaccessible. While staying here, you will find access to the lake very easy and the beach to be quite extensive.
What makes this property unique
Whether you’re an experienced steelheader or beginner we can accommodate you. We have teamed up with Chrome Run Guide Service. Any anglers new to the fishery can take advantage of learning expert techniques necessary for landing steelhead. Call now for special rates on fishing packages. Remember, Chautauqua Creek is in the middle of 'Steelhead Alley' where anglers can head in either direction to fish other streams. Chautauqua Creek has one of the largest catch rates of Steelhead in 'Steelhead Alley'. It has been calculated that fishing success equals 2.5 fish/hr. of fishing effort.
